WINTER VACATIONS IN NASSFELD

In winter, Nassfeld welcomes you with open arms. Vacationing here is a wish come true even for the most demanding guests. Nassfeld is located on three slopes, connected with a pass. It is the largest alpine resort in Carinthia—and the most modern in the whole of Austria. The resort boasts 300 sunny days a year, as well as excellent infrastructure, facilities, services, and diverse ski terrains (pistes, freerides, ski mountaineering trails, moguls…) with a high-quality treatment, making Nassfeld a TOP 10 ski resort in Austria.

The resort is suitable both for professionals or competitors, and advanced skiers, beginners, or families with children. The Italian Dolomites just over the hill provide Nassfeld with a sufficient amount of sunrays (up to 100 extra hours of sunlight when compared to ski resorts located up north). As we’re a foremost major massif, we can guarantee enough snow as the mountains capture most of the snowfalls coming from the Adriatic Sea.

Conditions for skiing are favourable from December to mid-April.

The first station of Millennium-Express, the longest cableway in Austria, is located in Tröpolach, 400 meters from our appartments.
